Summary
The bill, titled the Satellite and Telecommunications Streamlining Act (SAT Streamlining Act), would add a new section 346 to the Communications Act of 1934 that sets deadlines for the Federal Communications Commission to grant or deny licenses and market access petitions for non-geostationary and geostationary satellites, earth stations, and related modifications. It would require the FCC to issue implementing rules within one year, cap market access grants at 15 years with a possible renewal mechanism, and deem applications granted if the FCC misses the applicable deadline. The bill also allows limited, specified extensions of review periods for national security, safety, or appropriations lapses, and includes sense-of-Congress statements on the space industry, interagency coordination, and international radiocommunication engagement.
